Have been approached by another U2 Impersonator on Instagram. There is a whole new crop of them. This guy is not very bright and does not know his stuff. Tried to get me to give him bank information, Instagram does nothing about these people. They are making millions! Its outrageous.

Since it is hard to get Instagram to take these accounts down, I suggest making your account private, if it is not, and make sure you are not following the account and they are not following you. They can still message you, but they can’t tell if you read or delete it. You can also completely block the account.

I was just physically threatened by the fake Bono _u2.bono_ his email that he uses is From: Paul Hewson <officialu2bono@gmail.com> I am quite frightened now. I believe that he may be in California but I am not sure. If anyone comes in contact with this man call the Police ASAP.

No problem at all. It took a bit of courage because I am so ashamed and frankly heartbroken but I really do hope that I can help someone else not get ripped off. I heard for the last time from the Fake Edge tonight, He got quite nasty and I finally blocked him.

I got this fake Irish Passport from a different Fake Bono than the one that ripped me off. I couldn't remember which one, there are so many fake Bono's. I just wanted to post it in case anyone else came across it. I feel like a jerk, but I couldn't help myself and wrote to the fake Bono that was the worst Fake Irish Passport I have ever seen and clearly he doesn't even know what one looks like, I was looking at my Irish passport (I have dual citizenship Irish/USA and it was almost comical how bad his was...… .

Thanks hillpy2. I have been approached by :"David Howell Evans" also that is the first thing he did was tell me to go to google hang outs.
The conversations I had with the other Fake Edge seemed so real, he really knew his stuff and was smooth and very convincing. VERY convincing.

I' m so incredibly ashamed and emberesed embaressed but I have tp tell my story to protect other U2 fans. I have been a U2 fan since I was 14 1985. I am a bright educated woman but I got scammed.
On Instagram "The Edge" approached me. At first I thought it was too good to be true but then I got sucked in. And by the way it was too good to be true. He promised me a meet and greet but talked to me a while before he hooked me. This man is very very believable. There is also a multiple fake Bono's but one that is working with this Fake Edge. There Instagram names are _u2.bono_ and the other is u2.Edge_. This person impersonating the Edge went as far as having his "Assistant" Send me a "Meet and Greet" invitation it all looked very official to me. There were red flags for sure but as a fan of 34 years I so wanted it to be true. To date this man has gotten $5.000 out of me! $5,000! I am so ashamed and I am not a wealthy woman. If anyone has any questions regarding these two people and the interactions I had I am more than happy to share my experiences. I don't want this to happen to anyone else. I did meet a lovely woman from another country that had thousands taken from her,. There are multiple fake Bono's. One of them contacted me about donating to a secret foundation in Brazil and was extremely pushy. Then another Fake Edge immediately sent me a nasty message. after I told the other fake Bono that there is no such foundation. I have met a nice fan on Instagram that is from another country who has also had thousands of dollars stolen from her. There are so many victims out there.
Bono, Edge, Larry, Adam if you ever read these threads please know this is the most painful thing I have ever gone through.
Please everyone on social media be careful. I am more than willing to answer questions if anyone has any.
God Bless,
